Publisher's Review
How to cheer yourself up
As children enter the social world of kindergarten and school, they begin to experience the frustration of not being able to do everything they want.
Children experience difficulties in establishing self-image and threats to their self-esteem due to the evaluation and gaze of others.
In these times of increasing competition and uncertainty, self-compassion and self-acceptance are more important than ever.
Peter H.
Reynolds previously collaborated successfully with Mark Colaggiovanni on The Other Way.
It taught me how to wisely manage the anxieties and worries that come with everyday life, and reminded me that even when things don't seem to be going right, there is always a way to find a way.
In "I Like You," the two authors use beautiful text and illustrations to tell us what happens when we start saying positive things to ourselves.
Through the story, readers learn valuable ways to support themselves rather than judge or hurt themselves indiscriminately.
A journey to embark on with the courage to affirm myself
"I Like You" is a story about discovering who we are and learning to accept it.
It takes great courage to look at yourself and accept yourself positively.
It's like a journey to explore a place you've never been before.
We tend to think of ourselves only as the image we want to show on the outside, or we pretend not to know the parts of ourselves that we want to hide or reveal.
This book shows that if I look at myself and affirm myself, it is possible to be myself and understand others according to their own unique characteristics.
Because we can treat others as much as we love ourselves and look at ourselves with leeway.
A child and the image of the child reflected in the mirror are like our inner selves and ourselves that we show to the world.
The mysterious purple color is initially expressed as a single color, but becomes more splendid as the story progresses.
This suggests that the protagonist is unsure of himself and struggles, but with encouragement, he becomes more confident as he thinks about himself.
The thrilling, gentle, and warm atmosphere perfectly portrays the protagonist's journey as he grows stronger as he faces challenges.
"I Like You" will help children and readers of all ages find the courage to love themselves as they are and look within themselves, and will serve as an important milestone in the lives of young readers.
